Exfoliate at least once a week – salt and chlorine make skin rough and dry.- Always carry multiple types of sunscreens so you can reach every part of your body – a spray, a stick, lotion, and a tear-free formula (so it won’t sting if you exercise). Use every day, reapply every two hours.
- Stock up on good body and face moisturizers. All of the water our bodies come into contact with during the summer – the pool, the ocean, the outdoor showers – dries out the skin. Look for a chemical free formula – you’re already exposing your body to enough chemicals in bug repellents and sunscreens.
- For those who like to use antioxidants, it’s a good idea to use an antioxidant at night to help fight some of the free radicals you picked up during the day from extra sun exposure.
- If your face ever feels sticky or greasy, use a creamy exfoliator on your hairline, nose, around your mouth, and on your neck and upper chest. Be gentle on your cheeks!
